Nikki Semanchik – Founding Attorney

Semanchik Law Group represents small businesses and nonprofits and assists individuals with estate planning and probate. Founding Attorney, Nikki Semanchik, started Semanchik Law Group (“SLG”) with the goal of creating a law firm that felt accessible to small businesses and individuals who want quality legal services without the hassle of dealing with a traditional law firm.

“SLG strives to be as innovative and mission-driven as the clients it serves.”

We do this by taking down the traditional barriers that prevent clients from reaching out to a lawyer. Our virtual office allows us to be available to you on your schedule and in your neighborhood. From signing our agreements electronically to paying by credit card, we utilize technology to make the process of hiring a lawyer as easy as ordering your next ride. We value technology but prioritize personal relationships through quality in person meetings where we take the time to get to know you, your family, business or cause. We are a modern law firm with an old school twist.

Hear What Our Clients Have to Say.

Making decisions about your family’s future in the event something were to happen to you can be a bit overwhelming. Having two young children, my wife and I recently decided we needed to finalize our estate documents and had the pleasure of working with Nikki. She made the process incredibly easy and stress-free, explaining everything clearly and concisely. She also provided much needed advice regarding several important decisions we had to make, while at the same time catching small details we missed. Nikki gave us incredible peace of mind and I would strongly recommend her.
